THE RAILWAY MYSTERY.

A German at IuISa, ILL.,, Confesses to Have
Killed the Girl Found There.
SALEM, Ill, June 1z-On March 25 the
body Of an unknown woman, who had evil
IDENTIFY been murdered, was found by the
roadside near Railway, N. j., and
the murderer has never been heard
of until yesterday. A man hailing
from Brooklyn, N. Y, formerly of Urich,
Germany, landed at 1uka, this county, aud
gave his name there as CASHIER Stumbeck
He said he had only been in the United
States about five years. At 1uka he sought
out German, and having found one named
John Bowman, told him his mind was
troubled, and that he wanted to tell him
something. He said that he and an un-
known accomplice had murdered young
woman near Railway, N. j., March 25, and
he went on to tell about the crime. He
said he neither knew the girl nor the mo-
tive which prompted him to commit
the deed, but that he was drunk at
the time. The confession was re-
duced to writing. subscribed to by
him, properly attested and afterward
translated into English, after which he
was on the same day brought here and
lodged in jail. Stumbeck appears to be
we'll educated, and is fine musician.
Public opinion here is divided. Some be-
lieve that he is a crank, and that his con.
fession is wholly false, while others are
firm in the belief that it is true. The off,
cials at Railway have been notified.

DEMOCRATIC GROWTH.
Why the People Will Be Averse to
Political Change Next Year.

why the People VIII Be Averse to
Political Change Next Year.
Itis curious illustration of Amer
lean politics and at the same time a
significant tribute to the conservative
spirit of the Democracy that the most
potent argument three years ago in
favor of keeping the Republican party
in power is becoming one of the most
potent arguments in favor of the con-
tinued ascendancy of its antagonist.
When the Republican organs and lead
ers had exhausted every other reason
for making Mr.. Blaine President in
1884, they crowned the discussion with
this supreme consideration: that it
would be unwise and hazardous to
make change. Republicanism was
safe; it had been in power for six
quadrennial terms, and the country
knew what it was. The Democratic
party had been out of power SO long
that it had forgotten how to govern;
it was raw, clumsy, ignorant, mex
perienced and somewhat revolution
ary-and it would be unsafe to intrust
the finances, the revenues, the army
and navy and the Indian and public
lands bureaus to such a party. Let
the Government remain in the hands
of those who have administered it so
well.
Who would have thought that in less
than three years this same considera-
ton would become bulwark of the
party it was employed against and be
a chief reason for keeping the
party that employed it out of
power! And yet the Republican or
gans themselves are recognizing the
contented condition of the public mind
under the Democratic Administration
as the most formidable impediment in
their way in the next contest. The
very papers that vainly attempted to
make the country believe it would be
hazardous and unwise to make change
in 1884, are forced to confess that the
country believes it would be hazardous
and unwise to make change IN 1888.
One of these papers admits with uncon-
cealed chagrin that ''thcre are multi
tudes of timid, easy-going people who
are already saying that Cleveland is
good enough President for them;" and
another says sit must be admitted that
there are not a few Republicans who
take but little interest in politics, and
who express mild approval Of the Demo-
cratic President"
This contentcdness Of the public
